First and second rose to the top quickly although the second place
image really needs a crop (sign on the right is distracting). Many
baseball pictures and most of them were good for daily coverage, but
first was the best overall. Third place has some nice images but
needed an edit. Probably could have lost one of the water images
(frame 4). The fifth frame would have probably won first if it was a
single. Also a note about the woman's football story that did not
make the cut --- WAY TOO MANY IMAGES. If it had half of what was
submitted, it would have placed.
